  1. ok, here's the next one.... There is something slightly peculiar about this particular cover. What is it, and where did it originate? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My pts. 14
  2. duh.. dave cockrum. xmen 105. Can't believe no x-men gurus got this faster. I couldn't get to mylars right now.
  3. hmmm. .. sentinel attack on xmas eve? More research. At least the xmen part was ok. Claremont? Must be terry austin inks to look so much like byrne.
  4. hhhmm... 1st thought is byrne... iron fist maybe? Almost sure it's a byrne.. yah. Still looking. I've seen that before... x-men?
  5. You could just be right. I was working off memory. So I will check when I get home. Also, a scan verifies the answer if anyone has one. The more I'm thinking about it, maybe you are right. He was with his girlfriend and they were watching a movie about cap and bucky. Sooooo... technically, you are a I think Fury was like, ah no big deal, and his girl friend was excited. Yeah, the question is spot on. Just the detail about my question. The more I think about it, it was fury at the theatre, while cap was bunking up at training like a rookie. Yep, just verified, right on both counts. Thanks for updating my old ratty memory.
  6. Ok, off to eat, so here's your next one. What was the film about that steve rogers was watching at the cinema, in the issue where he 1st met Nick Fury. ------------------------------------------------ My points 13
  7. You have a great eye -- speaking of eye, I stared at the Ben Casey photo cover (greggy's quiz) for a minute or two, trying to persuade myself that it matched, then gave up. When Bangzoom posted the answer, I realized that I was looking at the wrong eye! Jack You think that's bad, I could have sworn it was a gold-key and a "WOMAN'S" eye!!! Those greggy specs (as in nano-snippets) sure can fool you. Next time he wins we'll probably get a pupil to find.
  8. ha ha. conan 3. Grim Grey God. I don't know how on earth I missed that. I must have looked at it a million times. Maybe because it's so small relative to the grim grey god's face when you pull it out. I kept thinking of hyborian woman being dragged off by harpies. I was looking everywhere for a secret early barry smith cover, or thinking maybe you pulled out the conan prototype story from inside panels. It just had to be barry. You weren't kidding when you said close.
  9. just to make sure I'm not splitting my neurons here. It's a cover, right?
  10. I could swear that's a barry smith drawing, plucked from the harpies of conan? But I don't see it on the covers. Lemme look inside.
  11. Actually,I cheated a bit on the backstory. It wasn't revealed until the cheating partner showed up for the reward and the reward payer revealed his face had been altered by plastic surgery. You can imagine the surprise on the greedy worm's face.
  12. Great Guess!!!! I'd post scans, but I don't want to keep taking it out of its slab. What a great imagination. You should write for dc. (thumbs u
  13. 20 yrs prior, two explorers were in the Burmese jungle, they had just robbed some individuals of very expensive jewelry. Unfortunately, one of the men was attacked by a wild tiger. Rather, than helping him, his greedy partner left him for dead. Flash forward 20 yrs later... A man pays 20 thousand to a great sculptor to carve a photo of carl thurston's (the individual who was mauled by the tiger) likeness into the mountains (sort of like Rushmore ). Everyone wonders who is depicted on the carved image. So much so, that an individual offers 100 thousand to whomever can identify the individual who's likeness has been sculpted....

  15. This is posted on the never ending quiz thread (general), if anyone wants to take a crack at it.
  16. ok, playtime is over. What was the secret of the stone faces? 1 Pt reward for it.
  17. obnoxio the clown vs. x-men. Heh, heh... he was just like crusty the clown.
  18. whew.... my points 12. Here's an easy break from some of these tough ones. Who's wedding is this and who's the groovy dude on the right?
  19. devil's island of space mystery in space 46 Trying to find the issue somewhere, or it's reprint in from beyond the unknown 10. Maybe someone has it handy. carbon is a naturally occuring by-product
  20. Here's my #93. Picked it up in Ebay a few months back. The scan created some odd reflections in the lower half (Cap's arm, Vision, Scarlet Witch) but they're NOT on the book. No black streak, and pretty good alignment with the wrap. A little crooked (see the top MCG band), but good enough for me! no ink streak
  21. How did jerry lewis meet wonder woman? Hint: he was trying to obtain something from her.
